Fraudulent Cutie

1990s America: a free-spirited girl leaves home and sets off on a wild adventure of scams, swindles, and mischief.

Play as Ellie, a middle schooler who's curious and sharp-tongued. In her eyes, music camp is totally lame—nothing beats a road trip across the USA. But! This trip won't be easy! Ellie carries a heavy burden: she must save her family's video store from a truly rotten loan shark.

Hit the crazy 1990s American streets, con passersby, pick a few pockets, and run circles around bewildered citizens. What? You want to brag about this in front of your mom? Don't push your luck! Mischief and vigilante justice are only a thought apart. This world is like a big stew pot, with all the good stuff simmering inside!

Mischief without the usual tricks
My own style of pranking is where it's at! Disguise yourself, sneak around, be the eavesdropper, be the uninvited guest. Who knows—maybe just picking pockets can dig up a mountain of gold. Maybe breaking into an empty house and running your mouth can fill your pockets. All sorts of shady characters are waiting for you to prank, all kinds of traps are waiting for you to crack—all for Mom's video store.

A coming-of-age comedy
Want to find yourself? Then go out and have an adventure. You're lucky, because an old hand is around to teach you how to be smooth as silk. But you can't walk the path of crime naked! You've got to sprinkle it with comedic seasoning and elevate it into a sitcom—that's the mark of a master. Get ready to use your silver tongue to rake in cash, steal hearts, and stir up trouble. Oh, and don't forget to call Mom now and then to check in. What? You say you'll butt heads with Mom? Absolutely—young people gotta clash, gotta argue, gotta make a fuss!

The bizarre, dazzling '90s—that's the flavor
Whether or not you're a '90s kid, you can indulge in nostalgia freely in this game. '90s kids can relive those cringe-filled chuunibyou years here; and if you missed the '90s boat, you can still drop by and savor all those worn-out classic teen movies. Plaid shirts, payphones, VHS tapes, shopping malls—the '90s' colorful trends, whether you want to forget them or can't forget them, The Great Swindler catches them all in one net.

But most importantly, the Hormipillar little buggy is yours to ride!
